Applying for the internship – tell us how you did this

Via GJS.

What made this role attractive to apply to?

3 Months of useful experience, which incorporated some of the skills I wished to develop from my Marketing masters

Did you apply for more than one internship?

Yes, many. Anything with Marketing involved or that I felt would help advance my career.

Tell us about the interview process with the employer

The interview process was very relaxed. The company work out of a home office so I met the managing director there. He had some questions but in the end we spent most of the time talking in detail about ideas for the company for well over the scheduled interview time.

Are you enjoying the internship so far? Is it what you expected?

Yes, it has proved challenging and interesting. I have had more input and autonomy than I expected and a permanent role has been discussed for the future.

Any other thoughts or comments?

I would like to say the communication I received direct from GJS when I queried anything was fantastic and the intern scheme is a great way of making a difference to all the unemployed graduates out there.
